about

My inspiration comes in many forms, even as a feisty pixie buzzing around me, calling out to me to get off my butt and make some noise, even when my motivation seems to be hibernating. I wrote “Pixie” about that little light, that insight, that “inner child”of creativity, who’s actually always there.

lyrics

PIXIE - By Valerie Orth

she’s up above me, not too far
a glowing pixie, a spunky deity
when motivation hibernates,
she stubbornly shakes my bed and shouts in my head “get up”

get up get up get up get up
i’m collecting dust, thrown just like an old toy
get up get up get up get up
been so quiet, come and make some noise

she spins a web every month or so
to catch my attention, catch my daydreamin’
she’s on watch hunting gathering
she’s plucking my guitar while she’s calling on me to get up

get up get up get up get up
i’m collecting dust, thrown just like an old toy
get up get up get up get up
been so quiet, come and make some noise

callin’ callin’ callin

I got a warm glowing pixie she’s just up above me
she laughs on my shoulder, says I’m here just for ya

get up get up get up get up
been so quiet, come and make some noise
